Hey guys,
I'm still around, still loving my CB, not as much time as I'd like to ride it.
The other day I rode to the office and got caught on a traffic jam. The CB started "having issues" at low RPM and just when I drove into the parking garage it stalled and it wouldn't start. I would press the starter button and nothing, the hands on the instruments would go to zero and that was it. I want to think it was electrons related because the clock got cleared. Anywho... I pushed started it, rode to my parking spot and went to work. Later that day, time to go home, got on it, started like a champ and took me home without a problem.
What could've caused this condition? Would the battery get drained just for sitting in traffic? If it was battery, how come it started just fine 8 hours later? I'm perplexed by this.
Hope everybody's doing well!
